Re: Can't send SNMPv3 Traps from C Program

My program is an agent that currently works with SNMPv1 and 2 and I am
updating it to support SNMPv3. The code sample I posted was very much
simplified.

I wrote my own create_v3_trap_session function because the standard
create_trap_session does not support SNMPv3.  However I am not sure that
the send_v2trap works with SNMPv3 either, in one of your posts in the
message archive you mentioned adding trapsess statements to the config
files, but I would like to avoid this if I can.

I am using net-snmp v 1.8.2
